Next webinar:
Speaker: Javier de la Rosa - Artificial Intelligence Lab (National
Library of Norway)
Title: The Mímir Project: Impact of copyrighted materials in LLMs
Date: Thursday, December 12, 2024 - 15:00
Summary: The Mímir Project is an initiative by the Norwegian government
that aims to assess the significance and influence of copyrighted
materials in the development and performance of generative large
language models (LLMs) tailored to the Norwegian languages. This
collaborative effort involves three leading institutions from different
regions of the country: the National Library of Norway (NB), the
University of Oslo (UiO), and the Norwegian University of Science and
Technology (NTNU); each contributing unique expertise in language
technology, corpus curation, model training, copyright law, and
computational linguistics. The ultimate goal of the project was to
gather empirical evidence that informed the formulation of a
compensation scheme for authors whose works are utilized by these
advanced artificial intelligence (AI) systems, ensuring that
intellectual property rights are respected and adequately compensated.
Bio: Javier de la Rosa is a Research Scientist at the Artificial
Intelligence Lab at the National Library of Norway. A former
Postdoctoral Fellow in Natural Language Processing at UNED, he holds a
PhD in Hispanic Studies with a specialization in Digital Humanities by
the University of Western Ontario, and a Masters in Artificial
Intelligence by the University of Seville. Javier has previously worked
as a Research Engineer at the Stanford University, and as the Technical
Lead at the University of Western Ontario CulturePlex Lab. He is
interested in Natural Language Processing applied to historical and
literary text, with a special focus on large language models.
